Find the Scribe - western part of the Citadel (2) | Stains of Heresy Darksiders 2 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
There is only one thing left to do before you manage to solve the puzzle. After you land in the new area with the second half of the soul, have a look around and find a switch. You may now terminate Soul Split.
Before you move on, go again to the hall with the statue in it. Jump down again and activate the portal visible in the above screenshot (screenshot 2 shows the portal's exact location), using Voidwalker. You can go back to the area where you have been solving the most recent puzzle, and use the newly unlocked passage to the left ))the north eastern one.
Go south now and wall run along the wall (the above screenshot). After you reach a ledge, deal with corrupted angels, and take a look into the nearby chest with a Skeleton Key inside.
[TIP: Remember the location of the reservoirs with the black goo in, because you will have the opportunity to come back here to check what lies in the area that is, as of now, inaccessible.]
Go further east and catch onto an interactive projection. After you reach the upper ledge, use a shadowbomb to unlock the passage and return to the starting point. You may now go towards the upper tower in this part of the citadel. After you get upstairs, use the skeleton key.
Select Voidwalker from the list of your skills and activate the portal located here (the above screenshot) and do not forget to hold the mouse down to open it reinforced. Correctly performed, this should result in transferring the energy to the tower, charging the yellow sphere and removing the black goo.
[TIP: If nothing happened after you activated the portal, make sure that you did everything according to the guidelines in this guide. The other of the portals should be activated in the room below the chamber with the statue in it (there is a charged yellow sphere located in there).]
Exit the tower, go downstairs and go left, i.e. to the north (it's the path that used to be blocked by yellow formations). Take a turn to the north-west and jump down to a ledge below. Go through the passage shown in the above screenshot . This will take you to a flooded area, that used to be covered with black goo. In here, you can find a GnoMad's Gnome connected with the [GnoMad's Gnomes] quest.
Return now to the upper tower, in which you have activated a portal and removed black goo. Note that the game gives you a choice of path here, and first go to the aqueduct that leads south (the above screenshot). On your way there, be prepared to use Death Grip twice. As a result, you should reach a place with a chest in it.
Return now to the tower in go through the northern aqueduct now. Stop where you have to jump down from the aqueduct for the first time. Turn around and collect Relic of Etu-Goth hidden behind a small waterfall (side quest [Lost Relics]).
Use one of the aqueducts (either the northern or the southern one- the sequence in which you come across the secrets described above is irrelevant) and reach the balcony to the east, shown in the above screenshot. Climb the interactive edge to reach the balcony. Open the door to the east and reach the next level of the citadel's main chamber.
Go towards the door to the east, but be prepared to fight a couple of corrupted angels on your way. After you reach the balcony in the third part of the tower, turn north the above screenshot), and go towards the door that you can see in the distance.
